Maximum Speeds
The speeds in these tables are
the maximums for the given
gears. If you exceed these
speeds, the engine speed will
enter into the tachometer's red
zone. If this occurs, you may feel
the engine cut in and out. This is
caused by a limiter in the
engine's computer controls. The
engine will run normally when
you reduce the rpm below the
red zone.
